Will LinkFixer Advanced create new versions of files in SharePoint?

Modified on: Tue, 27 Jun, 2017 at 10:52 AM

One widely used feature of SharePoint is its ability to track and store successive versions of documents. LinkFixer Advanced has been designed to work with this feature of SharePoint. If version control is enabled in SharePoint, LinkFixer Advanced features that write changes to SharePoint files (Inoculate, Cure, Move/Rename or Modify Links) will cause a new version to be created in SharePoint. SharePoint will create this new version of the file with the current date and time of the modification, and with the “Modified By” field populated with the name of the user who is running LinkFixer Advanced.

If the version selection in SharePoint is set to “Create major versions”, LinkFixer Advanced will create a new major version when it modifies files in SharePoint. If “Create major and minor (draft) versions” is selected, LinkFixer Advanced will create a new minor (draft) version when it modifies files.
